Our children are our most beloved thing in the world. They are our everything. But these kids do many funny things both at home and at school. Many a times, they can put you in some social embarrassment. Do you get annoyed on your kids, once they do something of this nature? Have a great day.

I don't see any parents who never get annoyed by their children. I hear it at school, in work, in malls and in parks. Its one thing we parents knew we cannot avoid and would take it as part of being a parent. Kids are annoying sometimes, but as long as you're patience is much longer, then there would be no problem. And maybe, when we grow old and becomes annoying to our kids, they would learn to be patience for us too.

You are also correct. But important thing is that at times, it becomes very difficult to keep patience. I really appreciate your patience. You told another good thing, if we maintain patience they learn that. Its a great thing! Have a great day.

i am a mother of 3 sweet children...i don't get annoyed by my children at all and i don't get angry at them because these things don't help children rather destroy their personality and self esteem....i handle them with love....i explain them what they need to do and what they need to avoid....we all have a friendly relationship and my children are always encouraged by me to have open discussion on any topic with me....we play together, we laugh and we enjoy being with each other.

I don't have own children , so I can't know well what a parent feel in embrassment situation caused by the kids. However, I always try not to get annoyed with the children, because the anger hurts the kids much more than we think. There some things that we do when we're annoyed, we find them not serious, then we forget them completely; but those sad recollections can be kept in the mind of the kids for the rest of their life and have a bad influence on their view. That's why we, the adults, should pay attention you our behavior. I'm also opposite to any violent action of the others on towards their children.

I being the all-american real mom, am annoyed by my children 24/7. They are constantly looking for things to bicker about or throw a fit about. I love my kids to peices but they can get on my nerves. My normally quiet 12 year old told me the other day --while i was chasing the dog--"mom, you really ought not to run". It wasn't the fact that I cared what he thought, but the neighbor was out and started to giggle. I am 115lbs, and the neighbor is pushing around 400lbs...can't really laugh at that, but he did. My youngest daughter is mad because she can't zip her pants and is complaining until I go in and show her she wears a 7 not a 3T. My middle boy is hilarious non-stop and when i say that, that boy doesn't know when to quit. I could kill him sometimes. When we are trying to talk to them and be serious, he makes fart noises, or giggles uncontrollably. I take all this in with a grain of salt. Sometimes even a bullet sounds good....You gotta love kids!!

I do love my child. But yes, sometimes i do get annoyed by my son when he become bad boy, when he has a tantrum, when he always wanted to get what he wants and messing round the house. But i always managed it and try myself to calm down and talk to him, not to do it again. Happy myloting.

I love my kids too. But, just last night is an example why sometimes they annoy me. I had to wake up early today for an early morning meeting at work. My son who's 3, who sleeps until 11 in the morning on sundays, was pretty annoying last night. After he wakes up at pretty much noon, he eats and plays around for most of the afternoon. Yesterday he took a nap at around 7pm, and woke up at around 9:30pm. So he was very much awake past midnight. He was shouting and dancing around in our room giving problems sleeping. Last I saw, he was still at it at 2am. I don't know what time he slept, but I saw him on our bed when I woke up this morning. Now, I am feeling cranky, and I was late for my meeting.
